What to expect

We expect about 1.2 goals from CSKA Moscow and 1.5 from Zenit, so Zenit come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.2-1.5), and we make both teams to score about 61%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.

We put the chance of that landing at about 61 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.75, which works out at about 57 out of 100. That gap is the whole reason this is on the site: we rate it more likely than the price does, and the price looks good to us because of it.

What the numbers say
✓CSKA Moscow have won two of their last five.
✓Zenit are unbeaten in their last five — four wins and one draw.
✓Three of the last five meetings finished under 2.5 goals.
✓Both teams scored in three of the last five meetings.
